On the amber shores of the Baltic, Lithuanian stands as a linguistic time capsule, preserving features of Proto-Indo-European that have vanished elsewhere. Known natively as "Lietuvių kalba", this ancient yet vibrant language connects approximately 3 million speakers across Lithuania and diaspora communities.
A Portal to Linguistic Antiquity
Linguists consider Lithuanian the most conservative living Indo-European language. Its archaic features offer insights into how our ancestors spoke:
Nearly unchanged stress patterns from 3000 BC
Noun declensions mirroring Sanskrit
Verb conjugations preserving extinct Indo-European forms
The 1547 "Catechism" marks the birth of written Lithuanian, though its oral tradition stretches back millennia.
Modern Life of an Ancient Tongue

EU parliamentary proceedings
Vilnius' booming fintech sector
